A simple understanding of patent validity search

Conducting an effective patent search can help you establish the originality and creativity of an idea, analyze the limits of patentability and authenticate patent enforceability.  Further patent search can help in identifying potential licenses, instantly research to more profitable areas and obstruct invalid patent applications proceeding to grant.

 Patent validity search is vital to successful intellectual property execution. It is used to determine whether a patent can be invalidated because the invention was not original and inventive when the patent was granted.  It is for this reason patent validity search is also known as patent invalidity search.  A validity search is quite different from a patentability search. A patentability search is conducted before you take out a patent whereas a validity search is carried once the patent is granted to test whether the invention truly met the original provision of the patent application process or not. A patent validity search can be used under three conditions. 

They are - prior to patent licensing, preparation of patent enforcement and invalidate patent when threatened with infringement.
